I try to send pictures to nokia 6600 and I don't know how??? I can set up bond for nokia 6600 and received the pictures. Is anyone know how to send pics by using bluetooth filesharing on XDA II?
hey mate,
last time i did this; transfer files to a nokia phone, was like april. so i'm a little rusty but i'll try to remember what i did.
basically i turned on my bluetooth and my friend did the same. i then used the xda2's infared app; if i remember correctly when i tried sending him the file the ir didn't work but rather the bluetooth took over. thus i DO remember being able to send him pics and wav files. another thing i also did was used file explorer. go to the file you want to send; then put your stylus on the file name but don't release it (don't lift your stylus); after around 2-3 seconds a small menu should appear with the options: cut, copy, rename, delete, send via email, beam file and set as today wallpaper (if it's a pic). click on beam file; i think this goes back to the first explaination i did where i used the ir app. again; instead of the file beinng sent via ir; the bluetooth app takes over and the file gets sent. as long as the bluetooth apps in both devices are working; it should be able to send. oh; before i forget when you're about to send; the app will search first for all available devices. when you see you're friend's profile you then click on it. if i remember there'll be a button "send file" or something; you then click on it and wait for a few seconds. confirmation should be seen on your screen and possible a sound on your friend's phone. hope that helps.
cheers

Hi Guys.
What software do you use to send files via bluetooth?
I believe the default file explorer cannot do this and I have tried GSFinder but couldnt see how to do it in that either.
I know its possible in Resco, but i wanted something a bit more light weight if possible and it is not free.
Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I send a BT file using the default file explorer. Who told you it can't do the job ? I even had problems sending a file using Resco file explorer, it won't let m send any file, I get error message.
How do you send files via Bluetooth in the normal file explorer? I can see options to Beam file, send via mms and email. when I choose beam its to do with Infra Red.
When I use Resco I had no problems, chose send then by what method.
Thanks for your reply.
You select the beam file option from the menu, then wait, it will first try to send via infrared then will look for bluetooth receivers in the area. I just found this out the other day myself. I also think you need to have receive all beam types checked also (which I think is the default) [Start/Setting/Connections/Beam].
I have problems sending files from a PC to the Wizard... how do you use bluetooth to send it over?
Can we send files from a PC to the wizard using bluetooth? Is there any other way to manage files on the PDA without activesync?

You are quite right! I chose that option and only saw the infra red option, my tip to anyone wanting to do this is activate bluetooth, ensure other bluetooth device is close and the press beam, it will search and find the bluetooth device!
Thanks tekknogenius
Hi Guys
I just got my Touch 3G (love it) but still getting to grips as its my first smartphone.
The problem I'm having at the moment is trying to send, for example, a picture via bluetooth. I've done a forum search and understand about using bluetooth explorer or the beam file option from file explorer.
What I'd like a definitive answer on is this: If you're in the 'Photos and Videos' tab of touchflo and viewing a picture, is there an option to send the file from the image menu? Sending items from file explorer etc doesn't allow you to see what they are before sending them, only the file name.
Thanks in advance.
As far i know, you can't send photos or video's form the touchflo image viewer. U have to use the windows file explorer. It was to bad that HTC did not make an option to directly send photo's from the touchflo photo tab.
Try this

how the hell do you send multiple files through bluetooth. its not possible to do this. i can only send one file then i have to send the other. i wan to highlight say 3 music tracks and send them using bluetooth. but it dont let me. any help
Go into Settings tab > menu > all settings > bluetooth. Click right hand tab, select BT Send Object. Select Audio, highlight the files you want, press SEND.
And be glad you don't have an iPhone, which can't even send one file over bluetooth.
thanks man

Well I think you could have tried this, it is very obvious.
In file manager, tap & hold the file and select "Send via Bluetooth".
well, you can create a zip archive using any free tool and send them, I'm currently looking for an app that enables sending multiple files, but I only found old ones that support infra red >.>
it's helpful for sending multiple objects that don't appear in the BT send object menu
[edit] Resco File explorer apparently sends multiple files via bluetooth (sending different types of files at the same time as well), but it's a paid app
Use Dropbox
I've found a workaround... I send multiple photos to dropbox then cut/paste them from dropbox to whatever folder I want. That way I don't use up the allotted space with dropbox. Works for me!
guys, help me to do passing mp3 file, pictures, videos and others to another phone or device via bluetooth on htc elf? please help.
Here's the manual, enjoy
thank you for the manual..
btw, where to see the recieved files???
Probably in \my documents
Sometimes you find them in UA contents or in "Samples" (Vorlagen in German)
